[0028] The following will be combined Figs. 1-3 The utility model is explained in detail.

[0029] A saliva collector, comprising:

[0030] The collector body 10 is provided with a mounting cavity 101, and a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is arranged at the bottom of the inner cavity of the mounting cavity 101;

[0031] The collecting bag 20 is placed in the mounting cavity 101, and the bag opening of the collecting bag 20 is connected to the orifice of the mounting cavity 101;

[0032] The support device 30 is connected to one side of the orifice at one end and connected to the other side of the orifice at the other end.

[0033] The fixing patch 401 is arranged at the outer edge of the orifice of the mounting cavity 101, both ends of the fixing patch 401 are provided with hydrocolloid dressings 402, and the opposite ends of the collector body 10 are also provided with hanging ears 403; and

[0034] The control unit is electrically connected to the pressure sensor and the support device 30 respectively, and the control unit controls the extension length of the support device 30 according to the received pressure information, thereby controlling the size of the orifice of the mounting cavity 101.

[0035] When the saliva flow of the patient is large, the size of the orifice can be automatically adjusted, the capacity in the collector is improved, the situation that the saliva cannot be accommodated and spills out due to too much saliva is avoided, the nursing staff can also realize that the new collecting bag 20 needs to be replaced when the orifice exceeds a certain size, and the design of the collector avoids the problem of hygiene caused by saliva staining the chin of the patient.

[0036] Specifically, the bag opening of the collection bag 20 is bonded to the orifice of the mounting cavity 101; the fixing patch 401 is bonded to the chin of the user, and the hydrocolloid dressing 402 is arranged at a position that can be aligned with the corner of the mouth of the user; the hydrocolloid dressing 402 has the ability to absorb exudates, and after absorbing saliva, the hydrophilic particles in the dressing can form a gel-like semi-solid substance, which has a debridement function; in order to enable the nursing staff to better judge whether the new collection bag 20 needs to be replaced by observing the size of the orifice, a warning tape with color can be pasted on the orifice of the mounting cavity 101; the control unit is a microprocessor, and the specific structure and principle can refer to the prior art, or other control devices in the prior art can be used as the control unit, and details are not described herein; the collection bag 20 is a common plastic bag; the collector body 10 is a flexible material that can be expanded at the orifice (the bottom cannot be expanded), or a flexible material with a corrugated structure (the orifice and the bottom can be expanded at the same time), and when the support device 30 is extended, the collector body 10 is expanded along the corrugations on the left and right sides.

[0037] In the embodiment, the hanging ears 403 are elastic hanging ear bands, and a pressure relief sleeve (not shown in the figure) is movably arranged on each elastic hanging ear band. The pressure relief sleeve is used to reduce the compression damage to the ears of the user. The pressure relief sleeve is moved to the auricle of the corresponding ear, and the pressure relief sleeve is used to replace the elastic hanging ear band to directly contact the ear of the patient, so that the compression damage to the ear of the patient can be effectively reduced.

[0038] In the embodiment, the fixing patch 401 is a medical adhesive, and the surface of the medical adhesive is provided with a release paper.

[0039] In the embodiment, a soft layer 404 is arranged on the side of the collector body 10 close to the user, and connecting bands 405 are arranged at the opposite ends of the collector body 10 to be connected to the neck or chest and abdomen of the user, and the two connecting bands 405 can be detachably connected to each other.

The arrangement of the isolation block 406 is used to avoid the user from feeling the flow of saliva in the collector more obviously, thereby improving the comfort of the user.

[0041] In the embodiment, the support device 30 is a support arm with a motor, the fixed end of the support arm is connected to one side of the orifice, the output end of the support device 30 is connected to the other side of the orifice, and the support arm is arranged at the left and right ends in the orifice, and the space between the two support arms forms a saliva inlet.

[0042] In the embodiment, the orifice includes a first region 501 and a second region 502 arranged at intervals, the bag opening includes a plurality of connecting openings 601 and notches 602 arranged at intervals, the connecting openings 601 are detachably connected to the first region 501, the notches 602 correspond to the second region 502, and the second region 502 is coated with an activated carbon layer for adsorbing odor. Specifically, the activated carbon layer can adsorb the odor of saliva falling into the collection bag 20, effectively reducing the overflow of odor.

[0043] In the embodiment, the collector body 10 is provided with an alarm 70, and the control unit is electrically connected to the alarm 70. During use, according to the needs, the alarm threshold is set in advance, and the value sensed by the pressure sensor in the saliva collection bag 20 is monitored in real time. When the saliva collected in the saliva collection bag 20 reaches the preset alarm threshold, the alarm 70 emits an alarm sound to better prompt the nursing staff to handle it, so as to prevent the saliva in the saliva collection bag 20 from overflowing due to too much saliva and causing discomfort to the patient, and further improve the convenience and comfort.

[0044] The saliva collector disclosed by the utility model has the following working principle:

[0045] First, the connecting opening 601 of the collection bag 20 is bonded to the first region 501 of the orifice of the mounting cavity 101 of the collector body 10, so that the collection bag 20 is built-in in the collector body 10. Then, the release paper is torn off, and the collector body 10 is bonded to the user's chin by medical adhesive. At this time, the two ends of the hydrocolloid dressing 402 are aligned with the user's mouth corner, and the hanging ear 403 is hung on the user's ear, and the two connecting belts 405 are bound to the user's neck or chest. When the user spits saliva, the saliva flows into the collection bag 20. When the flow increases to a certain amount, the orifice is expanded by the pressure sensor, the control unit and the supporting device 30, and the collection bag 20 is expanded, so that the capacity of the collection bag 20 is increased to a certain extent. When the saliva is filled to a certain extent, the nursing staff takes out the collection bag 20, knots it and disposes it, and replaces it with a new collection bag 20.

[0046] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and characteristics of the utility model, the purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the utility model and implement it, and cannot limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit and essence of the utility model shall be covered within the protection scope of the utility model.
